Get Effective Dental Pain Relief Without Traditional Anesthesia

At Green Dentistry, we’re committed to staying on the forefront of dental technology and holistic care. That’s why we use the Synapse Dental Pain Eraser to relieve pain without medication or local anesthetic.

Keep reading to learn about potential side effects of regular anesthetic, how the Eraser works, and what conditions it can be used for.

Traditional Dental Anesthesia Side Effects

While local anesthetic is necessary for some procedures, it can also come with unwanted side effects, like:

  • Headaches
  • Nerve damage
  • Allergic reaction
  • Muscle twitching
  • Racing heartbeat
  • Mild to moderate bruising
  • Drooping of the lip, eye, or cheek
  • Soreness and swelling at the injection site
  • Numbness that extends beyond the treatment area

In most cases, these side effects are mild and resolve within a few hours after the anesthetic wears off.

That said, using the Synapse Dental Pain Eraser whenever possible can eliminate discomfort without needles, pills, or unpleasant side effects.

How the Synapse Dental Pain Eraser Works

The Synapse Dental Pain Eraser uses proprietary subsensory Pulsewavetechnology to relieve dental pain via neuromodulation. We simply touch the tip of the pen-shaped Eraser to the desired area of the mouth for up to two minutes to deliver high-frequency electrical pulses directly to gum and tooth tissue.

The result? Zero pain for up to 48 hours. And since this treatment is completely drug-free, it can be repeated as often as necessary to control dental discomfort.

What Is Neuromodulation?

In the 1960s, scientists learned that when the right frequency of electrical pulses comes into contact with nerves, they disrupt how the nerves communicate pain to the brain.

By changing the way these signals are transmitted, the brain can’t register them as “pain.” This is called neuromodulation and results in the prevention or relief of discomfort in the treated area.

It also blocks histamine production from mast cells, which helps to reduce inflammation and swelling in localized areas. When used for dental treatments, neuromodulation can help make your visit to the dentist more comfortable than ever.

When to Use Electronic Dental Anesthesia

Electronic dental anesthesia is safe and effective. It’s ideal for:

We can also use the Dental Pain Eraser after surgical procedures like dental implants or gum surgery to help control pain without medication.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Synapse Dental Pain Eraser approved by the FDA?

Yes, the Dental Pain Eraser is an FDA-cleared device that is safe to use on patients of all ages.

Who shouldn’t use the Eraser?

Some patients may not be good candidates for neuromodulation. This includes patients who are pregnant and those who have seizures or a pacemaker. This is because electrical pulses from the device may interfere with the activity of a pacemaker or induce seizures in patients with epilepsy.

How long does it take the Eraser to work?

Most patients feel relief from dental pain in about 30 seconds. In cases of severe pain, the neuromodulation process may take up to two minutes.

Does using the Eraser hurt?

No, using the Eraser doesn’t hurt. However, patients may feel a slight pulsing or tingling sensation as the electrical pulses are delivered and the nerves are blocked.

Can the Eraser be used to prevent dental pain?

Yes, the Synapse Dental Pain Eraser can be used before a dental procedure to prevent pain from occurring in the first place.
